Sheridan (209 KP) rated ARQ (2016) in Movies

Ever felt like you're doing the same thing over and over again, but can't remember when? Yeah, that's this movie. You don't even get time to blink, it's simply straight into action, again and again. Surprisingly, you don't feel like the repetition is getting old. A fast paced, thrilling ride, right to the very end. Plus it's Stephen Amell's cousin so he's very easy on the eyes :p Not bad for an Netflix Original.

Far better than it has any right to be
It's fun and funny, has a great mark hamil cameo, and manages to never be boring. It even surprised me a few times. It is however kind of cold and cynical to the point of making it impossible to really connect with on any level (kickass had the same problem). Still, a great ride.

[Preston Fleming] has quickly become one of my favorite authors. With [Bride of a Bygone War] he hits another home run. The continuing action and intrigue of Beirut in the 1980's is conveyed in a fast paced yet humanistic manner.

Any fan of spy thrillers or the action adventure genre definitely needs to check [Mr. Fleming] out. I will be awaiting the third installment of the [Beirut Trilogy] and any more works by this exciting author.

A great start to the Debutante Drop-out series. Fast moving, fun, and with a thoroughly likable protagonist in Andy. The characters that needed to be were well-developed, the plot interesting - so the mystery is easily figured out for lack of suspects, but I didn't notice any plot holes! - and overall, the book was just plain good. I'm looking forward to reading the others and am so glad that I have the next one right here. :)
4.5 stars

Not my usual read but I heard about it through a number of people so I thought I would give it a go. It was well written, funny with good plot twists. The characters were believeable and I felt great empathy with them. My only criticism is that the ending seemed a little rushed but perhaps that is because I was enjoying the book so much

Cast, original story and genuinely funny and moving. Excellent acting. (0 more)
Class comedy drama
What could be a boring story regarding a womans life after her husbands death gets spun on its head. Christina Applegate and the rest of the cast put their acting capabilities to the full with this biting story about grieving, loss and redemption.
The twists come thick and fast without being contrived. Give it ago it feels fresh for such a well treaded subject.
